OMG, thank you so much for shedding some (candle)light on this silliness! A couple of months ago someone was joking about these on Facebook and, perplexed, I looked them up. Now I constantly get fucking Diamond Candle ads on all my social media. You know how when you see sponsored posts on Facebook it'll show you…

Yeah, exactly. Why do they have to be pink? Why do they have to feature a white, blonde, princess type? When I was a little girl I played with Robin Hood and Star Wars LEGO, a Brio trainset, Tinker Toys, Marble Run, and one of those stables full of realistic-looking vinyl horses. I also had My Little Pony and a…

GOD, RIGHT?!?!??!?! I AM SO SICK OF THIS MISSPELLING! it's personal for me because I sell some products which I describe as "Cute & Sleazy," and I constantly get orders from wholesalers requesting "Cute & Sleezy" and see my shit marketed as "Cute & Sleezy" by retailers. GUYS. PLEASE.

I do. They make the only pants that fit me correctly. Like someone else in this thread said, I'm as disgusted by Charney's sleaziness as the next girl, but for someone with a limited wardrobe-buying income, I have to choose between poor-quality shit that is made in sweatshops under horrific working conditions…

Yeah, I recall some frescos of men sporting some seriously GIANT penises in Pompeii, as well as some incredibly graphic depictions of sex, but I believe they were all within what had been a brothel.

They just played an interview with her on NPR this morning in which she said Bill Robinson was her greatest teacher and closest friend when she was a child. Really touching.

"...when I was in the blissful early stages of a happy new relationship with Mia's daughter, to whom I'd acted as a father figure throughout her childhood and whom I would go on to marry..."

Not defending the guy in the least, but the word "scrum" means a tight, disorderly crowd, not a typo for "scum."

Yep! Julia Phelps = Ghoulia Yelps :)

I know, right? I got weirdly fangirly about it when I learned this info, and I give zero shits about Monster High!

I doubt Barbie feels threatened by Monster High; they're both made by Mattel.

Yeah, they do. My brother's girlfriend works for Mattel and one of the Monster High girls is "based on" her (meaning the doll also wears glasses and her name is a "spooky" pun on my brother's gf's.)

You're thinking of Bratz. Mattel does own Monster High.

You're right; PSH was a far better actor and was less of a caricature of himself than Johnny Depp.

"Pornhub Kevin" just didn't have the same ring to it.

That is really interesting and also really sad.

Ah, I gave up on ever getting out of the grays long ago. I revel in my grayness.

Yeah, right? Who exactly is confused about the meaning of the word "feminism" in this scenario?

Me too, and I don't even like or watch the show. This whole article could've just read "NUH-UH!!!!!! WE'RE STILL MORE POPULAR THAN YOUUUU!" and the takeaway would have been pretty much the same.

Actually, he said "If it ain't Baroque, don't fix it."
